MURDER and SUICIDE.
JAMES HOGAN MAKES A DEsPER.
ATE ATTEMPT
To Kill His Wife by Using q Hatchet
on Her skull, After
Which
HE JUMPED OUT OF A THIRD
STORY WINDOW,

ragged and Murdered and n
Little Girl Raped.

NEW YORK, March 25.-James Ho-
gan tried to kill his wife Elizabeth at
$3.50 o'clock this morning, and then
committed suicide. He made the at
tack on his wife with a hstchet, strik
ing her on the head and fracturing her
skull, after which he Jumped out OF
the third story window OF the house.
The coroner has been notified to take
Mrs. HoRsn's ante-mortem statement.
James Hogan was the driver OF q
KniokerbOcker ice wagon. When he
threw himself out Of the window his
head was mashed, and he died on the
spot, The tenement No. 1852 West
Twelfth street was the scene OF the
the tragedy. Hogan had been work,
ing for the lea company for twenty
years or more. He was sober, hard
working end easy to get along with 40
rule. He was married TO his wife
fourteen years ago, and they had six
children, who had all died. The loss
OF her last child preyed on Mrs. Ho-
CANS mind, and il was unhinged at
times, the neighbors say. One
OF her fss OF depression came
on her yesterday. Hogan had
been drinking, but not enough TO
affect him. He was, however, irrita.
BILE and nervous at times. His wife's
depression appeared to have affected
him and he stayed at home all day
yesterday. During the day the wite's
incessant mourning for her dead took
q praying turn. She made her hus-
band and the neighbors sssist her in
praying. Hcgan's married sister called
last evening and found the pair still
praying. She eaid today that her
brother was MOI drunk but that he and
his wife were very much excited.
When the neighborB went to bed last
night the couple were still mutlering
their prayers. This morning they
heard struggle in Hogan's room, a
scream OF the woman, the sound OF a
mufii ID blow, OF chairs being upset, OF
window sash being violently
slammed open and crash Ia the yard
This ives when Hogan jumped from
the window. In the bedroom from
which he had jumped Mrs. Hogan
was found with her skull split open.
The walls and bed clothing, and
even the celllng, were spattered with
blood. Hogan had struck her on the
head with 0 Ratchet in o moment OF
insane evaporation, and, believing
that he had killed her, had thrown
himself from the window "a the
quickest way Of ending hi5 own life.
Mrs. Hogan said that che aud her hus.
band had quarrel, but about what
she seemed TO have forgotten. He had
never struck her before, but had al
ways been good husband to her She
was taken to the hospital, where the
surgeons decided she was In no imme-
diate danger Of death, % It was found
that her skull YVES not fractured, as at
first supposed. She has three deep
cuts on the top of the head, but Meth.
or has eplit the bone. She is 80 weak
from loss Of blood that II will be
strange IL she RECEIVERS. She was not
able 10 make any statement TO the
Coroner about the trouble.
